Urban: It turns out this is a comprehensive world
Chapter 30 already has a way to die.
"Him? It shouldn't be."
Upon hearing Qin Qingcheng's question, Yu Bingyu frowned slightly, her fingertips unconsciously tapping the table. After a moment of contemplation, she slowly shook her head, a trace of uncertainty still lingering in her eyes.
"Oh?" Qin Qingcheng raised an eyebrow, the corner of her eye curving upwards slightly. Her tone contained a hint of surprise, but also an undisguised delight. "In that case, things get interesting. Perhaps we don't need to worry too much about Xiao Chen's matter at all."
"What do you mean?" Yu Bingyu looked up, her eyes full of confusion, completely unable to follow Qin Qingcheng's train of thought.
Qin Qingcheng's lips curled into a mysterious smile as she rubbed the rim of her teacup with her fingertips. She lowered her voice and said, "I can't explain the specifics right now, but if I'm not mistaken, Zhao Hao will be the main force in dealing with Xiao Chen. Moreover, he understands Xiao Chen better than any of us."
She paused, then added with certainty, "In that case, we need to adjust our plan. We should hand over all the information we've gathered about Xiao Chen to Zhao Hao so that he can respond more accurately."
"Will this work?" Yu Bingyu frowned even more, her voice full of worry. "Xiao Chen knows martial arts and is quite skilled, but Ahao is just an ordinary person. This is too dangerous."
"Don't worry, he can definitely handle it." Qin Qingcheng picked up her teacup, took a sip of the warm tea, and casually dropped a bombshell: "Besides, because of you, a clash between him and Xiao Chen is inevitable."
Moreover, you may not know this, but although Luo Lingtian doesn't currently intend to take action against Xiao Chen, he has been keeping a close eye on Xiao Chen ever since Xiao Chen stepped into Hai City. He even knows Xiao Chen's whereabouts perfectly well.
"So, Xiao Chen's every move is actually under Luo Lingtian's watchful eye." She put down her teacup, the bottom of which made a soft sound as it hit the table. "If you're really worried about Zhao Hao's safety, keep a close eye on Xiao Chen's movements. If he shows any signs of resorting to violence, I can simply ask Luo Lingtian to secretly help him."
"Hiss—" Yu Bingyu gasped, her eyes filled with shock. This news was too explosive. Luo Lingtian had actually set his sights on Xiao Chen so early?
"So, Luo Lingtian knows Xiao Chen's identity as the Dragon King?" Yu Bingyu hurriedly asked, as this was the only reasonable explanation she could think of.
After all, on the surface, Xiao Chen was just a nobody who had saved her by chance and then became a security guard at the Yu Group. He was not worth Luo Lingtian's attention at all.
"That's natural." Qin Qingcheng nodded gently. This was indeed one of the reasons, but she didn't intend to tell Yu Bingyu the deeper reasons.
"Okay, I understand." Yu Bingyu nodded knowingly. Thinking about it, it wasn't surprising. Luo Lingtian's background was unfathomable, so it was reasonable for him to be able to find out Xiao Chen's true identity.
"Then it's settled. We'll contact you again if there are any further developments or other news." Qin Qingcheng said, getting up to straighten her skirt before turning and leaving the private room at the Emperor Hotel.
"So he really is a reincarnated person?"
Inside the underground experimental base, Luo Lingtian was focused on arranging the experimental equipment while also paying attention to the three-dimensional image that Luo Ya projected into the air.
If Qin Qingcheng were here right now, she would be shocked. The video clearly showed her and Yu Bingyu talking in the private room. Not only was the scene in perfect detail, but their conversation was also transmitted word for word.
Watching Qin Qingcheng walk out of the private room in the video, Luo Lingtian raised his hand and turned off the video, a meaningful smile appearing on his lips: "It seems that this little girl already knows my true abilities."
He sighed softly, feeling a mix of emotions—a sense of感慨 (gǎnkǎi, a complex feeling of mixed emotions, often including regret and helplessness). No wonder Qin Qingcheng and Lin Wei looked a little strange last night when they talked about the virtual reality headset; it turned out that was the reason.
"However, it's not a big deal." Luo Lingtian shook his head, putting these thoughts out of his mind. He figured that Qin Qingcheng and the others probably only knew about his current power and strength, and it wouldn't matter if they knew this information.
He has always kept a low profile, simply to avoid unnecessary trouble, but that doesn't mean he's afraid of trouble! If anyone dares to provoke him, he will not be polite, like that Xiao Chen!
Although Qin Qingcheng and Yu Bingyu's conversation revealed little information, it was enough for Luo Lingtian to deduce quite a few things.
He could roughly guess that in his previous life, Xiao Chen had a smooth and successful career, with his strength and influence rising rapidly, eventually standing against him. As for the outcome...
Luo Lingtian wasn't narcissistic, but judging from Yu Bingyu's words and Qin Qingcheng's actions, he had clearly won the final victory.
Why are we so sure? Because after Qin Qingcheng moved into Lingtian Manor, she never made any unnecessary moves or said anything, nor did she ever take the initiative to target Xiao Chen in advance.
On one hand, it must be Qin Qingcheng's inherent pride that makes her unwilling to directly rely on the power of others to deal with Xiao Chen before she has even tried herself.
On the other hand, she was certain that even if she couldn't deal with Xiao Chen on her own, she would still have her as a backup, so even if Xiao Chen really grew up, he wouldn't be a threat!
Having figured out the key logic, Luo Lingtian was too lazy to bother with it anymore. However, whether Xiao Chen would have the opportunity to fight him again in this life was still unknown. After all, Zhao Hao was no ordinary person either.
It's just unknown whether Zhao Hao, like Qin Qingcheng and the others, has awakened memories of his past life, or... has a more special identity, such as a transmigrator?
……
"Tsk, this Zhao Hao is quite interesting."
Just as Luo Lingtian put aside his distractions and focused on his research, in another luxurious manor in Hai City, Mo Yu was leaning back on the sofa, looking through the intelligence sent by his subordinates, a faint smile on his lips.
The intelligence report described the conflict between Xiao Chen and Zhao Hao in the antique street yesterday. The two bid against each other for an ancient painting, and in the end, Zhao Hao won and acquired the painting.
Although the Dragon King Palace was wealthy and powerful, Xiao Chen had just arrived in the Dragon Kingdom, and the Dragon King Palace's industries in the Dragon Kingdom had not yet been fully developed. Their cash flow was not abundant, so they naturally could not compete head-on with the wealthy and powerful Zhao Hao.
Mo Yu was curious about what secrets were hidden in that ancient painting that made Xiao Chen consider using force to seize it.
Unfortunately, before he could take any action, he was taken away on the spot by the police who arrived at the scene. He is currently being held in the police station and will probably be serving time in jail for some time.
As for why Xiao Chen was arrested, it's inseparable from Mo Yu's praise at this moment. The person who called the police was Zhao Hao, and the charge was provoking trouble.
The specific reason is the incident where Yu Bingyu was harassed by thugs and Xiao Chen stepped in to "save the beauty".
Zhao Hao produced conclusive evidence proving that the so-called "hero saves the beauty" was nothing more than a play directed and acted by Xiao Chen.
Once the nature of the situation changes, the outcome will naturally be drastically different. If nothing unexpected happens, this Dragon King of the Dragon King Palace will probably have to spend some time reflecting on his actions in prison.
"Alright, it's getting late, I should go take lunch to my wife."
Mo Yu chuckled and put the intelligence into the shredder to shred. He just found the matter interesting; as for the secret in the ancient painting, he didn't care.
It's just an ancient painting, what earth-shattering secrets could it possibly contain? It's nothing more than some martial arts manual or something like that.
These things are no longer relevant to Mo Yu now.
Over the years, he has often discussed martial arts with Luo Lingtian and sparred with him. His cultivation has already broken through to the mid-stage of the Innate Realm, and he has his own unique insights into martial arts.
Even those so-called "peerless secret manuals" that have been lost may not be able to bring him much improvement. He is confident that his improved martial arts manual is by no means inferior to any lost martial arts.
Not long after, Mo Yu drove an inconspicuous domestic car, carrying a thermos full of lunch, and arrived at the Hai City Public Security Bureau. He walked into Wenren Yajing's office and immediately saw her with her cheeks puffed out, her pretty face flushed red, and a faint aura of menace surrounding her.
"What's wrong, honey? Who made our Ya Jing angry?" Mo Yu walked up quickly, his tone full of concern.
"Honey, you're here!" Wenren Yaqing, who was still fuming, softened considerably when she saw Mo Yu. She reached out and took the insulated food container he handed her, a smile returning to her lips. "What delicious food did you make today?"
As she opened the insulated box, she complained indignantly, "Yesterday we caught a troublemaker, and his character was so bad that he actually tried to stage a hero-saves-the-damsel-in-distress act to gain favor. Luckily, he was exposed."
What's most infuriating is that guy has a really foul mouth; he's always trying to get his way with me verbally!
"I originally planned to report this for the heaviest possible punishment; keeping this kind of scum out there is just asking for trouble. But who knew I'd suddenly receive orders from my superiors to release him! This is blatant disregard for the law! I was just about to report this to higher authorities!"
"Huh? Is that so?" Mo Yu frowned, but said firmly, "Wife, I support you!"
Wenren Yajing focused on eating the sumptuous meal with her head down, completely unaware that as she spoke, Mo Yu's expression grew increasingly grim, and the coldness in his eyes almost overflowed.
Provoking trouble? Playing the hero and saving the damsel in distress? And you still dare to take advantage of Ya Jing?
Mo Yu's heart burned with rage: It must be that guy Xiao Chen! How dare he make a move on my wife, he's practically asking for death!
Feeling Wenren Yajing's occasional glances, Mo Yu forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, put on a gentle smile again, looked at her seriously, and continued to express his support.
No one knew that at this moment, countless ways to deal with Xiao Chen had already flashed through his mind: whether to sink his body to the bottom of the river or to seal his coffin with cement and make him disappear forever.
However, it was indeed unusual that Xiao Chen was released so quickly. Mo Yu's eyes darkened. It seemed that he had to find out what kind of powerful protective umbrella this guy had behind the Dragon Kingdom.
